Reviewer scorecard
“The dashboard ecosystem is unmatched. Prometheus + Grafana is the standard stack for infrastructure monitoring.”
“4x the compute per dollar compared to AWS. European data centers for GDPR compliance. The best value in cloud computing.”
“Open source keeps you honest on pricing. Grafana Cloud is competitive with Datadog at a fraction of the cost.”
“Unbeatable pricing if you can manage your own infrastructure. Not for teams that need managed services.”
“The LGTM stack (Loki, Grafana, Tempo, Mimir) is a credible open-source alternative to the entire Datadog suite.”
“As cloud bills become a board-level concern, Hetzner's value proposition becomes more compelling every quarter.”
